By GlobalDataElavon is a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp and has worked with Santander since 2004 to offer payment solutions to businesses in the UK.
Through the alliance, Santander hopes to better serve businesses with bespoke payments solutions.
Last month, Elavon dipped its toes into the charitable sector through the deployment of 1,100 contactless terminals for the annual Poppy Appeal.
This effort, by Elavon, marks the largesT-ever deployment of cashless terminals for a charitable campaign in the UK.
The idea behind this is that charities will be able to increase revenue and simplify administrative efforts through providing more digital payment options.
In addition, last month Elavon acquired Sage Pay business from The Sage Group for about £232m ($305m).
